Given - Multiple Two-unit Two-story dwellings (let's say ten structures total), approximately 16-20' apart. Carports are proposed between each of the two-unit structures. Said carports fill all space between dwelling-unit structures except for a distance of about 6" between each side of the carport and the adjacent two-unit structures. So for example, if there was 20' between two-unit dwelling structures, the carports would take up 19' of that 20' total space.
Question, would the code require one-hour fire-resistive construction on the side walls of the carports and the dwelling units given their relative distance to assumed property lines? If not, why not?
